独家爆料 established the annual Landslide program in 2002 to focus attention on culturally significant landscapes at risk for alteration or destruction. This year, to reach and inspire an ever expanding audience, 独家爆料 weds our Pioneers of American Landscape Design publication series and Landslide initiative.

Organized under the theme Shaping the American Landscape, this year鈥檚 program spotlights great places designed by seminal and regionally influential landscape figures, which are threatened or at risk. These estate gardens, public plazas, institutional grounds, park systems, and cemetery designs have influenced our country鈥檚 collective landscape legacy. With this latest Landslide effort, these landscapes vividly come alive, with stories of those pioneering individuals who created them and those championing their survival today.
